Recently I have faced a strange bug. The mappoint project developed using VS2005 32 bit version was build in xp os. I use the x86 option at the time of build. After this,I transfer only exe and supported dll for mappoint from XP system to Vista(64bit) OS. The Exe successfully switch back to 32 bit mode in Vista and works all other featurs of the project except Mappoint control, when I click button to dispaly mappoint control error prompted "Mappoint failed to load. The cause of this exception is unknown". After this I develop entire project under Vista and the project was build in vista os there is no problem.Please suggest a solution. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;************** Exception Text **************&lt;br&gt;System.ArgumentException: MapPoint failed to load.

I have vista sp1 and I have this problem that started about 2 weeks ago. When I look at IE7 I can see it blink every 2 to 3 seconds non stop. When I try to type any web address it will highlight the text blue and when I continue typing it erases the previous text. The problem occurs even with Firefox. I am not sure where else to go for help. This is my first forum stop, I dont know if its a vista problem or something else, but I hope that someone can help steer me in the right direction. :ermm:</description><pubDate>Fri, 13 Jun 2008 00:15:55 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>blabbersplat</dc:creator></item><item><title>Windows vista freezes on boot up.</title><link>http://vistaforums.com/Forum/Topic126219-52-1.aspx</link><description>My windows vista freezes on boot up.
